Royals Sink Cardinals, 4-2
|
St. Louis got a terrific game from shortstop Tommy Edman. It wasn't enough, though, to prevent the team from falling to Kansas City, 4-2. Edman was 4-5 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles. Kansas City currently is in third place in the American League Central Division at 55-63.
The Cardinals had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Royals going into the bottom of the fifth inning. That changed quickly when the two-time All-Star Bobby Witt Jr. came to the plate. Witt Jr. hit a 2-run double on a first pitch slider from St. Louis hurler Drew Rom. It was Witt Jr.'s 24th double of the year.
After the game, Kansas City manager Patrick Ochs applauded the team's effort. "They busted their tails out there," he said.
